I am in my thirties and do all the adult things—like paying taxes, complaining about ‘kids nowadays’, buying my music on CD—pretty well. So I don’t know why I found myself liking the teen romance flick, Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist, so much. Maybe it was the music, maybe it was the New York setting, maybe because I like Michael Cera. Or maybe it was a really charming story.

I’m still psychoanalysing it all…
